and service is a heat conveying fluid with inner pressure up to 1,6 MPa and temperature up to 1800C.

If meter is powered from mains power supply, it contains dangerous ~230 V electrical current. It

is necessary to follow general safety requirements during installation and maintenance process. To eliminate this risk, only qualified technical personnel may install and maintain heat meters

(certificates for electrical installation work with equipment up to 1000 V are required). Personnel must be familiar with appropriate technical documentation and general safety instructions.

Device comply with safety class II. and does not require protective grounding. To protect power

circuits from current overrun, 0,1A fuse, marked “F1”, is mounted on the bottom side of power supply module. Remove power supply module to replace the fuse. If relay output current exceeds 2 A, it may damage output circuits. It is recommended to use additional protection circuits to protect relay outputs from damage.

Safety guarantees at installation and service of meter is: - Reliable insulation of electrical circuits, - Hermetic fitting of primary flow and temperature sensors into the pipeline, - Reliable fastening of a sub-assemblies of heat meter at installation. Safety requirements for temperature and pressure sensors are provided in appropriate technical documentation.

Warning! Switch off mains power supply before changing, repairing, connecting or

disconnecting system parts, if meter is powered from mains power supply! Power switch has to be installed close to the calculator.

Mounting of the sub-assemblies of heat meter is permissible only after ensuring of absence of heat conveying fluid in the pipeline.

When the meter is powered from the mains supply 230 V:

- The calculator of meter should be mounted in the cabinet (panel) - The calculator of meter must be connected to line voltage 230 V using 3-wire copper cable

with cross-section of each wire not less than 0,5 mm2 (3x0, 5 mm2 ) with the color marking. External diameter of a cable must be 6 ... 8 mm.

- The meter must be connected to mains power supply only through automatic unipolar AC switch (nominal current 2 A) (Annex B, Figure B3).

- The automatic switch should be a part of the building wiring and it should be marked as disconnecting device of meter. The automatic switch should be installed close to meter and so that it was easily available to service personnel.

It is recommended to establish the calculator in the same cabinet as the switches for cutting off power supply. The switches should be adjusted for the power used by the equipment.

Caution: If this equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the

protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.

4. OPERATING PRINCIPLE

Ultrasonic heat and water meters IFX-M4-04 is multichannel programmable microprocessor measuring device which consists of electronic unit (calculator) and the initial flow (up to 2), temperature (up to 3) and pressure (up to 2) sensors.

The flow measuring principle is based on ultrasonic measurement method. Fluid volume is calculated according the formula: V KH * KM * (1/t+ - 1/t-) *T ,

where: V - measured fluid volume, m3; T – time of integration, s; t+ - measured downstream time of flight of ultrasonic pulse, s; t- - measured upstream time of flight of ultrasonic pulse, s; KH – hydrodynamic correction factor; KM –coefficient that depends on the flow sensor dimensions. The liquid temperature is measured with standard platinum resistance temperature sensors Pt500 or Pt1000. Pairs of temperature sensors with 2-wire or 4-wire connection method for measurement temperatures on flow and return pipelines are used. Flow and return temperature sensors can be replaced only in pairs. The temperature sensor T3 (if not used for calculation of thermal energy ) the user can activate and use for other technological measurements or for regulation function.

Thermal energy is calculated using formulas provided in Annex A. Additional inputs of flow V3, V4 and pressure sensors, which are not used for thermal energy measurement, can be used (or not), for the control of other parameters.

Values of the measured and calculated patameters are shown on the display.

Calculator can be mounted in five different ways: - Wall mounting, without possibility sealing of mounting (see Annex D, fig. D2) - Wall mounting, with possibility sealing of mounting (see Annex D, fig. D3) - Mounting on standard DIN-rail(see Annex D, fig. D4)

IFX-M4-04 V01 16

- Panel mounting (see Annex D, fig. D5) - Direct mounting on ultrasonic flow sensors, when the flow sensors are equipped with special holders (see Annex D, fig. D6).

Note: For water heating temperatures above 90 oC, the calculator must be mounted on the wall. Adapter plate according to figure 8 of EN1434-2:2007 for wall mounting of calculator can be used (see Annex D, fig. D1.1) Important: It is forbidden to attach the calculator directly to a wall if there is a risk that on walls can be condensed humidity or temperature of a surface of a wall can fall lower than 5 °. In this case, it is recommended to attach the calculator so that between it and wall surfaces there was an air gap not less than 5 cm. Mounting of ultrasonic flow sensors

Outline and mounting dimensions of ultrasonic flow sensors are provided in Annex E. Requirements for flow sensor installation in pipeline:

- For flow sensors G1 ¼ (with permanent flow rate qp = 3,5 m3/h and 6pq m3/h):

- no requirements for straight pipeline length in upstream and downstream directions. - For flow sensors with permanent flow rate qp 6 m3/h:

- upstream straight pipeline length must be not less 5DN and downstream straight pipeline length must be not less 3DN when flow disturbance is elbow type (1 or 2 elbows);

- upstream straight pipeline length must be not less 10DN and downstream straight pipeline length must be not less 3DN when flow disturbance is valve, pump or similar disturber;

Avoid the flow sensor installation near after the pumps which can cause cavitations. Flow sensor can be mounted both vertically and horizontally in pipelines. Vertically mounting of the

flowmeter is allowed only if flow direction in the pipeline is from down to up. The direction of the sensor installation (is indicated with the arrow on the label of flow sensor) must mach with the flow direction in pipeline.

The flange gaskets must mach with the pipe diameter. During the installation gasket must be exactly centered with the center of the pipe cross-section to avoid sticking out gaskets inside the pipe.

Mounting of temperature sensors Temperature sensors are mounted by head upwards, is perpendicular to the pipe axis or inclined

by 45 ° angle on fluid flow direction so that the sensing element has been inserted in medium at least up to the pipe axis or beyond (as shown in Annex F).

Electrical wiring

Electrical installation of heat meter is performed according to selected measurement scheme (Annex B) and appropriate installation diagrams (Annex B), also according to technical requirements for other system components. Description of connection terminal pins is provided in Annex C.

The signal wires can be connected to the calculator only after full installation of the meter. It is forbidden to change length of a cable. Temperature sensor connection: 2-wire or 4-wire connections could be used. Using 4-wire connection schemes – the connection must be performed with the grounded cables with signal wires with the cross-section not less than 0.12 mm2.

Using 2-wire connection schemes - the connection must be performed with the grounded cables with total resistance of signal wires not more than 0.5 and the cable length difference no more than 2

IFX-M4-04 V01 17

Before installation check that the temperature sensors are paired with each other (T1 to T2). If cable length between calculation unit and sensors exceeds 5 m, shielded cables have to be used. Cables should be run through rubber seal caps and anchored with clamps. Four-, three- or two-wire cable should be used respectively. Cable shield should be connected to appropriate terminal pins (see diagram in Annex B) or to any free contacts marked with symbol “ “or is clamped with metal clips in an installation time. At connection with the grounded cables it is necessary in addition one of free contacts „ “to connect to a contour of grounding of a building a copper wire with section (0,5... 1,0) мм2. It is forbidden to wire signal cables nearby (less than 5 cm) with power cables or cables of other devices.

6.2. Setting up the configuration The heat meter is universal device for measurement of supplied (consumed) heating energy. The

calculator has to be customized for the particular application, putting into account the type of heating system, also types of flow, temperature and pressure sensors. After placing an order, calculating unit is adapted to one of several possible measurement circuits. Energy calculation formulas and measurement ciecuits are presented in Annex A. Flow, temperature and pressure channels, unused for heat energy measurement, cal be used to control other parameters. It is possible to select measurement units for flow measurement (volume units or mass units – according to measured media temperature).

The heat meter has to be programmed for the specific application using the control buttons , also the configuration button “SET” (under the lid, see Fig. 7.1) or with the PC.

To enter the configuration mode, open the calculator lid and press the button “SET”. Press the “SET” button once more to leave the programming mode.

When configuration (programming) mode is active, label “SET” is displayed in the upper right conner of the display. All parameters have to be programmed. The algorithm for setting up parameters, possible parameter limits and abbreviations are listed in Table 6.1. Table 6.1

Parameter values are displayed in sequence, shortly pressing buttons: - next parameter, -

previous parameter Use configuration data viewing mode “INF” to view device configuration settings (programmed

parameters and operation modes) and – if regulation function is activated – to change relay output parameter values.

7.3. Programming relay output parameters in regulation mode

7.3.1. Configaration parameters with codes “23:” ..”29:” (Table 7.1) are dedicated for

programming relay output parameters. When information data inspection mode “INF” is entered, it is possible to activate or deactivate regulation function, also to choose regulated parameter and control relay output manually by shortly pressing buttons or and selecting the parameter “23:”.

When button is pressed for long time, regulation status symbol “On” or “Off” starts blinking. Shortly pressing button will activate “On1” , “On2”, or deactivate “Off” regulation function.

When the operation mode On1 is entered, shortly pressing button will activate regulated parameter selection mode (parameter will start blinking). Select regulated parameter code (see Table 7.1) by shortly pressing button .

If regulation mode is deactivated (“Off”), it is possible to control the regulated valve manually. Shortly press button - symbol “R” starts blinking. Pressing button will start closing the valve – symbol “vR” will be displayed. Pressing button one more time will start opening the valve – symbol “^R” will be displayed. Pressing button once again will switch off valve control – only symbol “R” will be displayed.

7.3.2. Programming relay output parameters in regulation mode On1 At work in this mode the regulator can maintain temperature in the established limits, forbid value

of temperature to exceed an admissible maximum limit, forbid value of temperature to fall below an admissible minimum limit or to form alarm signal at occurrence of such disturbances.

According to the procedure described in Section 7.1, if necessary, it is possible to change the upper limit of regulation parameter (setting code “25:”) or lower limit of regulation parameter (setting “24:”), full travel time for actuator valves (setting code“26:L”) and the speed of regulation – pause time in seconds between the valve opening (closing) of 1% of the full valve runtime (setting code“27:P”).

If value of parameter “27:P” is established equal to zero - at break of conditions the corresponding relay will be continuously connected (it can be used for alarm signal formation).

To move to menu level (“INT”) press and hold button .

7.3.3. Programming relay output parameters in regulation mode On2 This mode of regulation is designed for automatic control of temperature Т1 for maintenance of

the room temperature (setting "24"), depending on the changing of the outdoor temperature (measured by temperature sensor T3) and of adaptation factor value of building (setting "24").

Recommended value of parameter „25:“ is 15. Settings "26", "27" set as in the mode On1 (see p. 8.3.2

Only for mode On2 is used: - parameter „28:“ - for maintenance of accuracy of flow temperature (hysteresis). Recommended

value of maintenance accuracy is 0,5...1 ºC (Reducing its value, frequency of opening/closing of the valve increases)

- parameter „29:“ - for setting of the maximum admissible limit of flow temperature Recommended value is 10 ... 20 ° C greater than the possible maximum working flow

temperature. This parameter is intended to limit the flow temperature at failure of temperature sensor or

erroneous settings case.

7.4. Activating test mode

In test mode it is possible to achieve precise results within short measuring time. When test mode is activated, calculation process is stopped and the meter readings are saved in

memory. After return to normal mode, the original values from before the test are displayed again. Test mode is activated by short double pressing configuration button „SET“.“TEST” label is

displayed on the upper part of LCD. In test mode by shortly pressing button , you can select required parameter:

Volume of liquid can be simulated automatically by the calculator, Provides automatic verification mode (For definition of measurement error of energy, without

measurement error of flow), when the meter is simulating water quantity and calculate the quantities of energy, according to the measured temperature (and pressure).

The automatic test mode can be used, when flow sensors are not connected or not filled by water.

Testing time is 100s. Shortly pressing the button will imitate flow pulses: V1 = 100000, V2 = 50000, V3 =

100000, V4 = 100000 (in volume units, displayed on LCD) During the test, blinking label „TEST“will be displayed. After the 100 s label “TEST” will stop blinking. Shortly pressing the button you can read test

results.
